Soccer Superstars and Rivals Make the Cover of FIFA 12

If you watched the 2010 World Cup, you should be familiar with these names: Landon Donovan, Rafael Márquez, and Wayne Rooney. Today we’re excited to announce that all three of these FIFA superstars have been named as the cover athletes for FIFA Soccer 12!

Sporting his MLS jersey, LA Galaxy midfielder Donovan is front and center on the cover, with Rooney and Márquez on either side, dressed in their national team kits. Donovan, Márquez, and Rooney have made a name for themselves while playing for both their countries and their clubs, and although they are rivals on the pitch, these key playmakers create a powerful image when they come together.

FIFA Soccer 12 brings to the pitch the game-changing new Player Impact Engine, a physics engine built to deliver real-world physicality in every interaction on the pitch. With revolutionary gameplay innovations inspired by the real-world game, this one is deeper and more engaging than ever.
